Safety Instructions

Issue 07/04

NOTICE

Keep these operating instructions within easy reach of the equipment and make them available to all users

Whenever measuring or testing has to be performed on live equipment, the regulations of Safety Code VBG 4.0 must be observed, in particular § 8 "Permissible Deviations when Working on Live Parts”. Suitable electronic tools should be used.

Before installing and commissioning, please read these safety instructions and warnings carefully and all the warning labels attached to the equipment. Make sure that the warning labels are kept in a legible condition and replace missing or damaged labels.

Transport & Storage

WARNING

Correct transport, storage, erection and mounting, as well as careful operation and maintenance are essential for proper and safe operation of the equipment.

CAUTION

Protect the inverter against physical shocks and vibration during transport and storage. Also be sure to protect it against water (rainfall) and excessive temperatures (see Table 5-1 on page 158).

Commissioning

WARNING

Work on the device/system by unqualified personnel or failure to comply with warnings can result in severe personal injury or serious damage to material. Only suitably qualified personnel trained in the setup, installation, commissioning and operation of the product should carry out work on the device/system.

Only permanently-wired input power connections are allowed. This equipment must be grounded (IEC 536 Class 1, NEC and other applicable standards).

If a Residual Current-operated protective Device (RCD) is to be used, it must be an RCD type B. Machines with a three phase power supply, fitted with EMC filters, must not be connected to a supply via an ELCB (Earth Leakage Circuit-Breaker - see DIN VDE 0160, section 5.5.2 and EN50178 section 5.2.11.1).

The following terminals can carry dangerous voltages even if the inverter is inoperative:

-the power supply terminals L/L1, N/L2, L3.

-the motor terminals U, V, W, DC+, DC-

This equipment must not be used as an ‘emergency stop mechanism’ (see EN 60204, 9.2.5.4)

CAUTION

The connection of power, motor and control cables to the inverter must be carried out as shown in Fig. 2-8 on page 33, to prevent inductive and capacitive interference from affecting the correct functioning of the inverter.
